More About Coach Dillon
Growing up in a huge Baseball town (Poway CA) I was fortunate enough to learn from some of the best baseball coaches in San Diego county. I was a walk on LHP my senior year at Poway High (top 10 in the nation at the time) where I learned how to effectively train as an individual, in small groups, and as a team. I wanted to learn everything my coaches had to offer from their experience competing in the Minors, College, and MLB. From their training I got to see my teammates work hard and achieve their dreams through effective training daily. That was when I realized competitive baseball is a lifestyle. The faster you find your ideal training routine, the easier it will be to crush your long term and short term goals.
After high school I continued to play high level +18 wood bat leagues and tournaments for fun. At 20 years old I played for the semi professional team called the San Diego Samurai, which was a team that helped Japanese players gain exposure in the US, and US players get seen by scouts in Japan. Meeting these high level Japanese prospects showed me a different style of training that I found extremely interesting and felt the results from adding these workouts and drills to my routine. This got me signed with and agent and gave me the opportunity to play in the Shikoku Island Winter League Plus. It was an amazing experience that took my training to the next level.
When I got back to the US I traveled the west coast trying out for multiple independent leagues and tournaments. I would always look for a team that had a high level training program so I could continue my growth and knowledge as a player.
In 2014 I interned for a Sports Agency in San Diego while playing for the Samurai. I got to see the other side of baseball that helps players get scholarships for college, and college players get drafted or signed overseas. My job was to connect high school players with college scouts and coaches, interview players for showcases, build player profiles to track growth on a monthly basis, and schedule tryouts for professional baseball.
In 2015 I was offered by a scout I met in Japan to go to Toronto to pitch for the Toronto Maple Leafs. I accepted and received a plane ticket to leave that week. Pitching in that league I got to experience first hand what it was like to pitch in a hitters league. The fences on most of the fields were well under 400 ft making it a fun challenge to keep the ball down and let your defense do the work. I enjoyed the challenge of having to go after hitters and grow accustom to pitching to contact and attacking the strikezone early. I gained a significant amount of knowledge from competing multiple games per week starting and relieving in the IBL.
I moved to Oregon after the season ended and created a workout program to hit the gym hard in the off season. It was my first time lifting heavy in my adult life, and I switched from long distance running to sprints when I worked cardio. Adding this to my daily routine along with throwing long toss daily I got my weight from 165lbs to 202lbs, and my fastball from 85mph to 91mph. Experiencing the difference the weights, stretching, sprints, and diet made on my pitching gave me supreme confidence on the mound.
I returned to Toronto the next season in significantly better shape and tore it up on the mound all through Spring Training. But it didn’t last long. I was unable to continue lifting in the gym during the season since I was not a Canadian citizen. I felt the difference on the mound as the season went on and felt my fastball drop into the 80’s again.
From 2016 to current day I have been grinding training with athletes from the ages of 7-39 years old in Albuquerque NM sharing everything I’ve learned first hand. I assess each player individually and help them come up with an ideal arm care routine, injury prevention, how to maintain gains throughout the season, making each repetition effective, and condition the player to throw fast and accurate with a healthy arm.
I am very passionate about Baseball, and I love teaching all age groups and skill levels. Throughout the many years of experience in this sport I can help streamline the training routine to get the max benefit out of each session.
If you’ve made it to the end of this, I truly appreciate you for your time! I hope to get in contact with you soon so we can get to work asap and crush your goals!

Start off with a Player Assessment. This will allow me to identify strengths and weaknesses in the athletes throwing mechanics through video analysis, record average velocity and max velocity, and create a custom training plan for the athlete. Every athlete I work with has a custom training plan based on skill level, location, and training availability. If you have an ideal location to train, I would be willing to travel if we can align schedules and plan in advance. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!

Coach Dillon is an exceptional pitching and arm are coach! I was lucky enough to have coach Dillon work with my team on several occasions. I have seen tremendous improvement of each of the kids he has worked with.
My son in particular was having some pain in his elbow due to the way he was throwing. Dillon has worked with him in multiple sessions to correct his throwing and rehab his arm.
Coach Dillon works with 9 year olds up to high school age kids. All of my kids on my team look up to him and want to work with him when he’s around. If you want a great throwing/pitching coach, look no further!

Bryan (CoachUp client)
Coach Dillon has worked with my son on several different occasions. Dillon is very skilled and knowledgeable. He has been able to connect with my son and get him to work harder then any other coach that has worked with him before. He has gone the extra mile to work with not just my son but my entire team. I am the coach of a 13u travel baseball team. Saying that I have had an amazing group of boys for several years and Dillon has maid my entire team a better baseball squad. He has worked one on ones with them and he has also worked with the whole team as a group. My boys are lucky to have coach Dillon and we will continue to have him work with our boys.

Kayla (Testimonial)
Our son is a fairly new player to the game and wanted to find someone who could provide him extra practice outside of his team practices. We reached out to Coach Dillon who we found while researching online, let me just say, he completely blew our expectations out of the park. Our son just hit a week working with Coach, and in just this short time we have not only seen great physical improvements, but tremendous knowledge in the game. We are now fully committed to working weekly with Coach Dillon as we can see the passion behind his coaching program. Our son truly enjoys and looks forward to attending his sessions and has become more excited with his future in baseball. Coach Dillon's dedication, knowledge, commitment, communication, passion, and coaching methods are highly professional, and greatly impactful to players who love the game. As a parent who wants to give their child the best guidance and support in the game they love, we would highly recommend Coach Dillon for ANY and ALL baseball needs. We are truly grateful for the hard work he puts in every session!
